Fortress America: Citizenship in the Age of Obama



We’re entering a new phase in America.  We’re becoming a nation of teat squawkers who believe they’re entitled to others wealth.  And don’t you One Percenters complain.  Phil Mickelson found that out the hard way.  How dare he complain about paying confiscatory taxes.  He needs to pay his “fair share.”  That’s the price you pay for living in a “free society.”  Yeah, free for them; not for Phil.

I was watching a documentary on World War II.  A German citizen recalled how the media and the Nazi government relentlessly demonized his beliefs.  He concluded that it was a relief to be conscripted into the army.  There he was just a soldier.  There he escaped the unrelenting propaganda. That man’s ruminations remind me of today’s America.

Citizens are trying to find ways to fight against the Progressives and their media lapdogs.  One group of patriots is establishing their own community in Idaho.  I believe we’ll witness more of this as the Obama administration progresses.  CNSnews.com reported the following:

The group, named Citadel, intends to purchase 2,000 to 3,000 acres for the project in western Idaho. The community will comprise of 3,500 to 7,000 families of patriotic Americans who "voluntarily choose to live together in accordance with Thomas Jefferson's ideal of Rightful Liberty."

According to the Citadel website, Rightful Liberty means that "neighbors keep their noses out of other neighbors' business, that neighbors live and let live."

Citadel explains that residents in the community will be bound by the following:
  • Patriotism
  • Pride in American Exceptionalism
  • Our proud history of Liberty as defined by our Founding Fathers, and
  • Physical preparedness to survive and prevail in the face of natural catastrophes --such as Hurricanes Sandy or Katrina -- or man-made catastrophes such as a power grid failure or economic collapse.
  •  
Residents should also agree that being "prepared for the emergencies of life and being proficient with the American icon of Liberty -- the Rifle -- are prudent measures."

Some of the benefits of the Citadel community include a safe, well-prepared, patriotic community where children will be educated in school, not indoctrinated.

The community will be protected by a perimeter wall that will be inaccessible to "tourists." Each neighborhood within the community will have lower walls, dividing the town into defensible sections.

More importantly, here is the criterion for which all Citadel citizens must hold:

"Marxists, Socialists, Liberals and Establishment Republicans will likely find that life in our community is incompatible with their existing ideology and preferred lifestyles."

Citadel says that every patriot selected to live within the community "will voluntarily agree to follow the footsteps of our Founding Fathers by swearing to one another our lives, our fortunes and our Sacred Honor to defend one another and Liberty against all enemies, foreign and domestic."

Considering what happened in Taylor, Michigan this might be a viable solution.
